Do you mean a chromosome containing a single gene? No, not in humans.
Do you mean a gene that doesn't have a corresponding gene on the paired chromosome? Well, the Y chromosome has very few genes compared to the X chromosome, so I would assume that a male's X chromosome has lots of genes without a pair.

Have you thought of nucleolus which is the repository of a single gene highly amplified?
Or there could be a an artificial chromosome having a single gene amplified thousand or more times.

No, you tend to find that chromosomes are too big to just have one gene, it wouldnt be viable for the organism to expend all the energy replicating a chromosome with only one gene on it.
even synthetic chromosomes such as YAC have several genes.

No, not in humans, at least. Even the Y chromosome has several genes.

according to me no human being have single gene chromosome.
well in male there are XY chromosome while in female there are XX chromosome.

well... no... but it cant be said it cant exist at all... there may be any such simplest organism... and there may not be....
anyways usually thr's no single gene chromosome.
